24, give birth to a child
In the palace, the emperor went back to the imperial study to review the folds.
Emperor Zhengming reigned for twenty years, except for the fact that after Concubine Yu entered the palace, he was unexpectedly favored by her, and he was a diligent emperor in the eyes of the courtiers.
On the imperial case, there is a fold that is a secret fold, which looks inconspicuous, but the emperor looked at the fold back and forth twice with great interest and pondered for a while.
The emperor smiled and said, "The father and son of the king of Zhenbei, the husband and wife are not in harmony, and the son of the world will grow up, but he will not tell him anything about the Xu family, and he will not let him contact with the generals of the Xu family." ”
"The next generation of Zhenbei kings who are estranged from the generals of the Xu family......"
The emperor smiled meaninglessly, threw back the secret fold in his hand, and picked up the fold on the side, which already had the opinion of the cabinet and agreed to Xu Han's promotion to the commander of Jin Wuwei.
"Everybody's agreed?" The emperor asked Cui Hai, the personal attendant.
Cui Haigong said: "Yes."
The emperor picked up the red pen and approved the two words "according to the accuracy" on the fold.
If it was said that Xu Han was verbally agreed to be the commander of Jin Wuwei before, but now with the word "according to the law", then her position will not be able to escape.
The emperor put the fold aside, thought about it, and said to Cui Hai:
"You will send someone to the Zhenbei Wangfu to spread my will, and say that the New Year is approaching, and the yamen will also seal the pen, and let my talented son recuperate at home during this time.
Wait for the beginning of the year to go to Jin Wuwei to take office. ”
Cui Hai said yes and said with a smile: "This is really a great grace, Xu Shizi really has to be a good errand to repay the emperor."
The emperor loves Xu Shizi so much, so why don't you put him by your side and walk in the imperial study. ”
Emperor Zhengming smiled and shook his head, "Let's put her in Jin Wuwei first, if it's a good one, there will be no future for her in the future!" ”
Cui Hai's heart was constricted, it seems that the emperor's appointment is indeed not untargeted.
King Zhenbei doesn't like the prince, but the emperor wants to reuse her!
Who knew that when the king of Zhenbei asked for the prince, the emperor arranged the imperial history that stood up and said that the concubine could not inherit the title?
He didn't know whether to sympathize or envy the prince of Zhenbei.
……
The emperor's plan, Xu Han didn't know.
On the second day of the confrontation between the Xu family and the king of Zhenbei, the Xu family went to the Shao family, and I don't know what to say, so Mrs. Shao followed to the palace and went to the courtyard of the Shao family.
About half a quarter later, Mrs. Shao left, and a heart-rending cry came from the room.
Xu Mian listened to these things elsewhere, and then told Xu Han to listen.
"I heard that the young lady's throat is bleeding from crying, and there is a room full of broken porcelain." Xu Mian was a little embarrassed.
He grew up in the palace since he was a child, and naturally he had seen the eldest prince in front of him, but after marrying the eldest young lady for a year, the eldest prince was gone.
This young lady may be a bad person, and if she says something ugly, she may be a coward.
It's good to leave the palace early, so as to save yourself from making trouble next time.
Xu Han heard that Shaw's throat was bleeding from crying, so he asked casually, "Have you found a doctor?" And in the past two days, you have been keeping an eye on your sister-in-law's yard, and people must tell me when they come. ”
After saying this, Xu Mian handed over the account book of the Shaw family and her sister-in-law that Xu Han asked him to check a few days ago.
Xu Han first took out the details of the properties that her eldest brother had purchased for her, and then looked at the account books that Shaw had taken care of over the years, and was stunned and couldn't believe it.
At the beginning, the eldest brother bought a lot of properties, some of which fell on her name, and some of which did not.
Those that fell on her name are probably because there are no house deeds or land deeds, so the shops are still there, but Xu Han can imagine how empty these shops are, the shelves are all there, and the meat is all gone.
She flipped through the others, and some of the Zhuangzi were almost gone.
She flipped through those account books and took a sip of cool air, this is called cannibalization!
Looking at the Shaw Brothers' dowry, it is very gratifying, in just a few years, it has been doubled.
There is also the sister-in-law of the Shaw family, it turned out that they were just dependent on the Shao family to live, in the past few years, a little industry has been added every year, good guys, there are already three shops, several Zhuangzi, and the land is almost a thousand acres.
This is really a loss to the family, and it has fattened everyone!
No wonder she just said it that day, and Shaw's sister-in-law was so angry.
How can such a shady thing be known by others?
The eldest girl in Xu Han's house looked at the account book on the side and said to her, "Shizi, this account book is also wrong, you see, the young lady and her sister-in-law's property are added up, and compared with what the eldest prince left behind, it is less than a part." ”
Xu Han squinted, the maids waiting in her room were all carefully selected by the Xu family from Shudi, not only did they not look bad, but they all had unique skills.
For example, the girl who reads the account book is called Yuan Zhen, her father is a bookkeeper, and Yuan Zhen has spent more time holding the abacus than sleeping since she was a child.
As long as there is a problem with the ledger that has passed through her, it will not escape her eyes.
"In other words, in addition to the Shaw Family, her sister-in-law has a third family, and this third family is still the mastermind!" Xu Han's voice was full of sarcasm.
"Who is so bold?" Yuan Zhen blurted out, Xu Mian raised an eyebrow on the side and glanced at her, "Stupid, you still need to ask ...... this"
He scratched his head, smiled, and looked at Xu Han flatteringly, "Shizi, who are you talking about?" ”
Yuan Zhen glanced at him, she was stupid to death, and she dared to say that she was stupid!
Xu Han supported his cheeks with one finger, his eyes slowly turned over, and then slowly turned around, it seems that the person behind this is a shrewd person, unlike these two, who are so stupid, it is estimated that it will take some effort to find out.
I don't know if my mother knew about it.
Regarding the death of her eldest brother, her mother must have hidden a lot of things about herself, and she used to say that she was young, but now, she has been able to distinguish between right and wrong, why didn't her mother tell herself?
When he went to the main courtyard to ask for peace for the Xu family, Xu Han asked tentatively, "Mother, the sister-in-law is going to return now, in addition to the dowry, will the eldest brother also take away the properties that the eldest brother bought at the beginning?" ”
Xu Shi turned his head to look at her, and said with a hint of amazement: "Why are you suddenly concerned about the affairs of your eldest brother's industry?" Your eldest brother still has Sister Ying, so those things naturally have to be left for Sister Ying. ”
It means that it will not be brought back to Shaw.
After speaking, Xu Shi turned his head again and looked out the window fixedly, Xu Han went over and put his arm around her.
The eldest brother is gone, and the saddest person is the mother, who can feel her pain and longing.
She let her sister-in-law return, all for herself, and her mother must feel sorry for her eldest brother in her heart.
His widow, the mother of her daughter, eventually left the Xu family.
Xu Shi turned around, raised his hand and stroked Xu Han's face, and said with a forced smile, "Your eldest brother is very capable, and he is better than others in everything he does." ”
"At the beginning, I just gave him some silver, but he secretly bought so many properties, and when he went, he took my hand and said that if the Shaw Brothers were willing to stay in the Xu family, they would give her the property.
He couldn't take care of her, at least let her have a little more money.
If Shaw Brothers wants to marry another person, he will give the shop to the child in her belly.
Pity your eldest brother, I haven't even seen Sister Ying'er. ”
Xu's voice was low, and he was a little choked.
Xu Han wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "I will treat Sister Ying well in the future." When she is older, she can marry someone if she wants to, no, we can recruit her. ”
Xu Shi glanced at her with disgust, "What do you think you are still recruiting ......?"
When the mother and daughter were talking, Xu Mian coughed heavily, this is the code they agreed, if someone from the Shaw family came and it was inconvenient to speak, Xu Mian would cough.
Xu Han didn't go out in time, and Xu Mian coughed heavily twice outside, as if he was going to cough out his lungs.
She stood up and said to Xu: "Mother, I'll go and see that kid outside, if you dare to run around when you're sick like this, you're not afraid of infecting the people in the yard." ”
Xu said with a smile: "Let's go and see, don't talk about him, it's not good to be sick like this and still serve you." ”
Xu Han touched his nose, lifted the curtain and walked out, kicked Xu Mian, and said in a low voice: "Cough so loudly, who are you scaring about." ”
"Shizi, isn't the little one in a hurry? It's been a while, do you want to come over? Xu Mian asked embarrassedly.
In the past, it must be passed, but there is still a particular way to get past.
After all, she is the brother-in-law of the Shaw Brothers, the Shaw Brothers are widowed, and her uncle is always bad at going to her side, and she will be gossiped about more.
She took Xu Mian to the back of the Shaw Courtyard quietly, and sent Xu Mian to look at the wind.
Actually, she didn't want to do anything, just to see how disgusting the sister-in-law of the Shaw Brothers could be, and it could be regarded as a long way to let herself see.
As soon as she stood outside the window of the upper room, she heard the sharp voice of Zheng, the sister-in-law of the Shaw family, from inside.
"You ungrateful thing, and you still have the face to say that I am gratitious? Tell me, if you hadn't had Sister Ying, you would still be able to stay in the palace for so many years to eat and drink spicy food.
Honored as a young lady?
And your mother-in-law, that pungent old lady, can treat you like this?
Your mother-in-law can hold an arrow at your grandfather and father-in-law, she is so ruthless, maybe she will let you go to the temple to live a dead life. ”
Xu Han covered his chest with his hands, what did Zheng's words mean? The mother held an arrow at her father's affairs, and the whole house has been banned, and the cut cannot be transmitted outside the house.
Moreover, as soon as she came back that day, her sister-in-law was confined by her mother, and she didn't know what was happening to her mother and father.
She grabbed her collar tightly, and Zheng's sharp voice came from inside,
"There is no way? How could you have no choice? I don't know about you, when you were a girl in the past, you didn't plan for anyone other than for yourself.
You are a talented woman, waiting for others to stand out for you, and others want to find your head, you can't do anything!
Joke, over the years, I have helped you take care of the industry, there is no credit and hard work, this is your thing, your business, you can't help it?
I don't care! Your mother said that I would hand over the property that I took care of for you, and I would pay as much as I wanted. ”
"Hand it all over! Otherwise, I can't explain. Shaw's voice didn't have any confidence, with a hint of hoarseness, probably really crying.
Zheng was furious, and his voice was higher than the other, "The surname Shao, where is your face?" What about your face? ”
She asked twice in a row, "You couldn't give birth to a child, how did you come to me, you almost knelt down, saying that he can't do it, you have to have a son anyway!"
You say, is that you? Did you ask me? You can't be so shameless!
As for your husband's famous sick son in the capital, if it weren't for the birth formula I gave you, would you have Sister Ying? ”
Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to sarcastically, this time saying more harshly than the previous one, "This child was born and raised, so you don't admit it?"
Ouch, this is not what this man did, you are such an ungrateful thing, I can be regarded as seeing it today. ”
Shaw's hoarse voice sounded again, "You said that the son Fang gave birth to a boy, not a girl." ”
"I gave birth to Sister Ying, but it's not your credit for giving birth to a child."
"If I had a son, would I still be like this? The position of the son of the world will only belong to my son.
I will be the old feudal lord of Zhenbei Wangfu in the future. ”
Zheng took a sip, "I've seen shameless, I've never seen you like this, what a talented woman in the capital, I really should let those people outside look at your face." ”
Xu Han's heart jumped suddenly, his mother said that the eldest brother died unexpectedly, and Sister Ying was a posthumous daughter, that is to say, before the eldest brother died, he had been eating the birth formula that Zheng said?
No wonder although Shaw Brothers seems to be sad about Sister Ying, such a discipline method is terrifying!
However, she had only heard of women eating, and had never heard of men eating.
She kept shaking her head, trying to shake the evil thought out.
But Zheng's words kept coming to her mind, "As for your husband's sick seedling, if it weren't for that recipe, would you have Sister Ying?" ”
Xu Han seemed to have peeked into something crucial, she slowly bent down, Zheng's words were still sharp and mean, and the Shao family still insisted on asking her to hand over all the things.
The quarrel between the two grew louder and louder.
She beckoned in Xu Mian's direction, and Xu Mian rushed over, "You go to the front yard to take a look, there is such a quarrel inside, why is there no one to persuade you." ”
Xu Mian sometimes looks silly, but this will be extremely shrewd, he knows that Xu Han is asking her to see if there is anyone outside the Shaw Courtyard, and the Xu family sent people to surround the front, and the prince doesn't want the princess to know.
Xu Han took difficult steps, slowly returned to his yard, slumped on the couch, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, her eldest brother, did he die on a child?
Such a good big brother is really too aggrieved.
Shaw, Shaw, she wants to go home? Want to remarry?
Xu Han laughed lowly, if the death of the eldest brother is really related to the Shaw Family, let alone her, even her mother can eat her alive.
The Shaw family can't return, but she can't live in the mansion anymore, she is afraid that before the truth is understood, she can't help but strangle her with her own hands!
